i have a K&N Typhoon, I wouldn't say it produces the best HP but it sure as hell sounds the best out of all the intakes.

Agreed. Just save the money for the intake. You won't regret it. I've actually heard guys in the club I'm in planning a switch to the CAI Inc from other intakes. The only other one that I've heard alot of good things about is Vararam, but it does require cutting the radiator brackets to attach on.

It's made in the USA and features a lifetime warranty. It also has a no-tune sleeve option so you don't have to tune it until you're ready to.

Also check our LSR axle-back exhaust:

Exhaust sounds nice.....but it's not going to help out the LS/LT owners on here when you show them a clip of your exhaust on an SS.

How about your LS/LT exhaust system?

Sorry about that, I did not realize this was a V6. (I was looking at threads by new posts) Let me check with our video guy and see if we have a video on that.

Edit: checked with our video guy and we unfortunately don't have a video of one on a V6 as of yet.
